good news

3 weeks ago I bit the bullet and had the blood work done to see if I had been infected by the Hep C Virus. I found out that Keith had it when he was in the coma and his ex wife stayed with me. I TESTED NEGATIVE. I feel clean again. I felt like typhoid Marian and went to the health dept rather than my doctor because I'm a nurse and didn't want to be traced...{paranoid???maybe}...Marian

Bet your relieved! That's great news!

hey, since you are a nurse, can you tell me something? I am quite anemic, low iron, can you tell me the best kind of iron to take? I don't have health insurance right now, or i would go to the doctor. Thanks.

I'm relieved with you, Patch. It's good you can move ahead with your life knowing you are healthy.

It's sad that anyone who is sexually active with an addict who is using, runs a high risk of receiving terrible diseases from them. Addiction....the gift that just keeps giving

It's good you got tested, now you can let your mind rest.

Hugs
